I'm in the process of getting ready for the gastric bypass before i can have this surgery i must lose 20-30 pounds first .. this is going to be a struggle for me but i am determined to do this by june 1st ....

Hi, What a great step you are taking. I had Lap Band surgery on March 11. It is not an easy road...don't let anyone tell you it is. I had to lose weight before I was able to have surgery as well. I was also required to go to several meetings and be involved in a Life Style Change classes as well as begin an exercise program. I am so happy with my choice! The surgery is the "cure" or the "magic answer" it is only a tool to use to help you get to where you want to be. I was about 272 pounds at the beginning of my journey. At surgery I was at 242....and now I just had an appointment today and I am 220!!! I am so amazed. It is still work but so worth it. Keep making choices that will get you where you want to go...and if you make a slip...get up and keep going. You only fail when you quit!!!!
